Deuteronomy 1:8

DEUTERONOMY—NOTE ON Deuteronomy 1:8 See. From the plains of Moab, Israel can now survey the land before it. The promise of land was made first to Abraham (Genesis 12:7; Genesis 15:18), repeated to Isaac (Genesis 26:4), and then to Jacob (Genesis 28:13; Genesis 35:12), including land for their offspring after them.
